Pictures, dogs and packages
I got the digital camera!! Jim and Rachel helped me buy it to post pictures for everyone to see, and it arrived in the mail from Lindsey today! So here's the most recent pictures, I'll keep posting the new ones to my "We Rock Out" site as I take them.
Some of the pictures are of Buck, the dog. Sgt. Huff chose the name, since he loads his shotgun with Buckshot. While technically a stray (due to Army policy), we're going to make sure that Buck is a well cared for stray. He's still really tiny, but didn't seem to mind us kidnapping him from his mother at all.
Finally, thank you EVERYONE for the packages. I have more mail than everyone else in the entire Squadron. It's GREAT. Thank you so much for your support, letters, cards, books, candy, rags, and all sorts of stuff! I'm going to try to write thank you notes to everyone...but that may just be good intentions that get squashed by the realities of being in a combat zone. I'll try.
Laters,
Trey

My dear son!
How good it is to see your smiling face. Big as life. The photos are wonderful, makes me feel a little teensy weensy bit closer to you again.
I cannot believe Buck. What a hoot! He is going to be the luckiest dog in Iraq, with all the good food and friendship. If Frank knew, he would be jealous.
Grandpa Groot will be soooo happy to have more photos of you. He has the first one with the weapon, sitting beside his chair and prays for you all the time. You have a lot in common with him -- he has the most mail and email of all the people in his nursing home.
I will tell people who are writing me and asking, "Did my package get there?" to check your website. With all the ups and downs of APO's everybody still wonders -- was it right?
I love you!
MOM
